Description
An expertly crafted, commemorative mixture, Anthology 1992-2022 is the culmination of 30 years of evolution and expertise, showcasing the interest, passions, and themes of Cornell & Diehl over those years. Elevated by many of C&D's favorite components — including the iconic SM2-18 and TA-20 Carolina Red Virginias, 2003 Bijou Virginias, top-tier Canadian Brights, as well as genuine St. James Parish Perique — this special-edition mixture highlights the blending house's unique approach to the Virginia/Perique family, delivering a naturally sweet, bready profile with notes of zesty citrus, rich stone fruits, and figgy spice.

"The various red Virginias have steady competition from the Canadian bright Virginias. All of them produce a wealth of tart and tangy, mildly sweet citrus, grass/hay, vegetation, bread, some floralness, a modest amount of dark fruit, earth, wood, sugar, dry sour lemon, and light spicy, vinegary, acidic notes. The Saint James Perique offers a fair amount of earth, wood, tingly spice, dried plums, and a hint of dried figs as a supporting player. The overall strength, including the nic-hit, are a step past the medium mark. The taste level is a notch past that mark. It won’t bite or get harsh, but it does have a few rough edges. The broken flakes are mildly moist, and need no dry time. Deeply rich, it burns cool, clean and a tad slow with a very consistent tartly sweet and sour, spicy, floral, zesty, slightly acidic flavor that extends to the lingering after taste. The room note is a bit stronger. Barely leaves any dampness in the bowl, and requires a couple more than an average number of relights. Not an all day smoke, but it is repeatable for those who want a VaPer with some punch and depth. Three stars.
